I absolutely agree.
The bizarre phenomenon of people thinking I’m a government/cdc Biden voting lackey because I think the vaccine is helpful for at risk people and won’t sterilize you is sad commentary on the state of healthcare in this country....

You’re asking a complicated question. Think about how not all antibiotics kill every bacteria just because they’re antibiotics.
In addition, remdesivir is used on hospitalized patients. By the time you’re hospitalized, the virus has already started a chain of events that may or may not be rever...

This is only when given to the younger population.
Probably dirt cheap if you look at the 50+ or obese crowd.
Just preventing us from using ONE remdesivir pays for 100 vaccinations....

It’s an unknown and a rare time the “natural immunity vs vaccination” argument holds water.
Numbers estimated but:
Expose yourself to 0.0001% risk three+ times or expose yourself once to 0.0003% risk?
First do no harm. ...

Clinically relevant myocarditis becomes a factor in the risk/benefit analysis for males below 30.
It’s still lower than covid itself BUT you’re guaranteeing exposure to the risk rather than rolling the dice in exposure to the risk.
Not really worth it if multiple boosters are going to be neces...

Cost was in the low billions. Vaccines are wildly successful if they convince democrats to not rape the economy again.
Vaccines have been a huge benefit to certain vaccinated people and not very beneficial to others.
You’re probably correct there would be an actual established vaccine schedul...

Policy needs to stop being built around one vaccine with poor immunity duration. People keep talking about Pfizer lasting 6 months as if that is the final word.
Moderna exists and Novavax may have something to say about both.
Mandates are stupid- premature mandates are even more stupid....
